Novena To Our Lady of Lourdes

O Mary, you who appeared to Bernadette
in the hollow of the rock,
in the cold of winter,
you brought the warmth of a presence
the friendship of a smile, the light and beauty of grace.

In the depths of our lives, so often obscure,
in the hollow of this world where evil is strong,
bring hope, restore confidence.

You who said to Bernadette ‘I ma the Immaculate Conception’
come to help us, sinners.
Give us the courage of conversion, the humility of penance
and the perseverance of prayer.

We entrust to you who are “Our Lady of Good Help:
all whom we carry in our heart, 
and especially the sick and those who have lost hope…

…mention your request…

You who guided Bernadette to discover the spring,
guide us to your Son who is the source of eternal life,
and Who gave us the Holy Spirit so that we can dare to call God:

Our Father, who art in Heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Thy Kingdom come
Thy will be done on earth
as it is in Heaven
Give us this day
Our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil. Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace
The Lord is with thee
Blessed art thou amongst women
And blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus
Holy Mary, mother of God,
Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

Our Lady of Lourdes Pray for us

Saint Bernadette Pray for us

O Mary, conceived without sin Pray for us who have recourse to thee!
